Analyses of integrated EPID images for on-treatment quality assurance to account for interfractional variations in volumetric modulated arc therapy.
CONCLUSIONS: Analyses of the on-treatment EPID images facilitates estimates of the interfractional anatomical variation in HNC patients during VMAT and thus improves assessments of the need for re-planning or adaptive strategies and the timing thereof.
